Done!
To export private spending and view keys from a graphical user interface (GUI) wallet into a command-line interface (CLI), you'll typically need to navigate to the settings or preferences section of the GUI wallet. From there, locate the option to export keys or view private keys. Once found, follow the prompts to export both the spending and view keys. These keys are usually exported in a specific format, such as a text file or a series of strings. Once exported, you can then import these keys into the CLI wallet using the appropriate commands or functions provided by the CLI wallet software. It's crucial to exercise caution and ensure that you securely store these keys, as they grant access to your cryptocurrency funds.
